Short history of the Youth Center of Kalamata

Since its opening in the middle of May, the Youth Center of Kalamata has hosted many diferent activities. Before the public opening we had an Intercultural Night with things the volunteers brought from their countries, 5 in total.

At the 4th of April we had our oficial opening night to the public, presenting the projected activities. Two days later we started our work with workshops of music, handcraft and stop motion video, together with Language Exchange sessions as the first activities.

We had a Latin Night in which students and teachers from a Latin Dances School presented some joyful steps; the establishment of a free wireless internet connection for everybody; a Volunteers' Party with about 15 EVS volunteers in total; and a visit from the Second Chance School of Kalamata wich ended with a smal balloon making workshop.

The Center was also the place of an exposition of wall and rock paintings from Kátia Badaná, an artist from Nauplio.
